A suitable lunch menu for Korean teenage students.?!
Edit - Thumbs down person. My husband is Korean and I haven't disappointed him yet and my cooking skills are, er, hopeless to say the least.
Bulgogi is always popular. They also like curry which is often served at the church I go to. Kimbap is often taken on picnics and outings and eaten as a snack. And of course, Kimchee. But try and impress them with your own country's cuisine or anything conventionally Western. I often make things like Spagetti Bolognese. Generally they don't go for desserts unless it's a special occasion (in which case I offer them cheesecake).
It a good idea to have a ready supply of decent teas and coffees. This is one thing they are more fussy about. The ladies I teach English to brought their own Korean coffee to my house because they didn't like the brands I had. (They also add less water because they like it strong). I used to prepare it for them but in the end they asked to do it themselves lolololol x
Answers: In my experience of entertaining Koreans, they will eat absolutely anything that is put infront of them. (On Christmas Eve, I went to a party and they combined Korean and Mexican food together. Seriously they are not fussy)

Hi Unshakable Rock, have you tried typing into a korean food site you will probably get some better answers? Or at least some ideas/recipes. All the best Rab
hotdogs.
you don't say where you live, but assuming these students are visiting a different country, how about some speciality of your area rather than trying to cook korean food?
if england, go for fish 'n' chips or roast beef,
italy -pasta,
scotland - haggis,
usa - burgers, etc.
i can tell you ain't in france cos you wouldn't even ask the question!

My favourite is GRIDDLED SALMON
Seared fillet of fresh salmon infused with garlic, ginger, soy and a touch of lemon or KING PRAWN TEMPURA
King prawns deep fried in a light and crispy sake batter, served with a sweet soy dip.
When my cousin, who is Korean, came here to study ESOL...she actually wanted to try some American cuisine. She liked KFC and McDonalds...though wasn't into the whole sit-down-American-dinner fare. Some items you might want to keep on hand are:
Kimchee (cabbage is the safest bet). If nothing else is in the house, get kimchee. I eat it with KFC, by itself with rice, with ramen noodles, with tuna fish...my mother's actually put it on top of pizza.
soy sauce
ramen noodles (shin ramen and kimchee ramen are safe bets)
Keep a good supply of eggs around. Handy for putting into ramen or making a quicky porridge breakfast.
In all likelyhood though, your Korean visitors will want a more American experience. After all, would you want to travel to Korea and eat nothing but cheeseburgers? I'd keep some kimchee and ramen on hand just in case they get homesick, but for the most part just serve as you would anyone else.
burgers and fries!
chinese food lol
So, tell me is this a chat up line or what?
Why is there an age? teenage or 20's, 30's etc I imagine most people brought up in Korea appreciate similar food. So your question should be on cuisine.
Remember there is no such thing as a stupid question, just stupid people ;-)
As they are in your country to learn then give them something you would typically eat,i have had Korean students before and they are not fussy eaters,will eat whatever you give them and be very polite!!
